[edit] Matthew Vines

It has been proposed that this article be deleted as it is not in line with Wikipedia's Articles of Notability. I disagree, as the articles mention that published authors or editors with a readership of more than 5,000 can be included in Wikipedia, and the Veritaserum site run by this individual has a much higher daily readership than 5,000. - Brethenbrother181, 23:04, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Article fails to establish notability.

This page should not be deleted, as Matthew Vines is both notable and influential within the Harry Potter world. He has over 5000 viewees of his website a day, making him notable enough for appreciation on Wikipedia.
